Born and based in Athens, Greece, with a background in conservation of works of art and antiquities, her work is inspired by ancient civilisations and natural settings. Anna started creating ceramics in 2014 after graduating. Conservation has been a strong influence since the beginning. Her way of working was guided by absolute discipline, concentration, attention to detail, patience and dedication. Handling and molding clay to create a ceramic item felt very familiar with the process of the preservation of the fresco. The background knowledge in the science of materials worked as a tools in understanding how to create her own glazes. With focus on vessels that provoke an earthy feeling, combining the ancient with the contemporary. Using material found in places she feels connected with, her work captivates memories. Ceramics functional and sculptural, all formed by traditional handbuilding techniques such as the coiling and pinching method. Unique and one of a kind pieces, slowly made by hand. All pots have been fired at a high temperature to ensure their durability. “At first, I worked on perfecting my coiling method and achieving the ideal symmetry to a flawless piece. After years of exploring and practising my craft I found what expresses me truly as an artist and a person. My collection "Stomata" meaning “mouths”, has broken all symmetry rules and each piece is slowly created almost with no control or limitations.

I often feel like each piece guides me and I follow its lead. I like to create a family of ceramics since I feel each piece is unique but together they create a wholesome feeling of peace. I opt to use materials and glazes to decorate my ceramics on earthy tones. I'm inspired by nature and I'm obsessed with the marks of time. I seek out the nostalgia of the old and one of the ways I express that is the essence of corrosion my pieces have

The collection Stomata, manifests my childhood memories from Oia Santorini, my homeland, from where I collected stones which I integrated in the ceramics vessels.

Stomata consist of shapes and figures of motion and rhythm.

All together in total, each one on a different tone, constitute a polyphonic ensemble, embracing one another composing a song.

Each piece is an autonomous chapter.

A single note, a single sound.

My personal symphony.
